Impact

As soon as the parliamentary elections were over, public opinion in Bulgaria was in flames. There is so much to depict: the women getting the right to vote, the few unlucky ones in the Gabler district, or the defeat of the major parties in the general elections.

In the evening, Pavel worked overtime again. Now he is getting a headache again. As the editor-in-chief of the Bulgarian Daily, he used to get a headache for no news. This time it is a headache because of too much news.

There is too much news that he can make the front-page headlines. Any one of them can be a sensation in Bulgaria, so it is a headache to choose.

The articles are carefully selected and have been rewritten by several people, so they are almost perfect, and there is nothing to reject.

News is time-sensitive, and if you miss the best time, it's no longer news. It is not easy to stand out among your peers when all are watching the parliamentary elections and all your peers are getting the same news.

After a long career in editorial work, he worked overtime as a rule. The high-pressure working condition made Pavel addicted to smoking, which had become a way to release his stress.

Pavel stood up and opened the cigarette case, and there was the last cigarette. He sat down again, lit up and took a deep puff. The smoke-filled his face with traces of concern, and he could not make a final decision for a long time.

It is not good to do current affairs news. It is important to be truthful. As the editor-in-chief, Pavel's pressure is always great, and the pay is very good.

As editor-in-chief of the Bulgarian Daily, he had a high social position and a very generous salary. It was enough for his family to live a rich life, which was the motive for Pavel to endure.

When his assistant, Kaki, saw that the editor-in-chief was slow to make up his mind, he was a little anxious, and the printing house had already given him a third call. If there is still a delay in making sure the layout, it will affect the printing, and the newspaper may face the lack of a sale in the morning.

Kaki hesitated but went forward and said softly in front of Pavel: "It's time for the editor-in-chief to make a decision. The printing house has sent a reminder three times."

"Well, I know! What do you think we should choose, Kaki?" Pavel said after taking a deep breath.

Kaki is dumbfounded. How can he decide on such a big event! It is not just if it is the usual news, like this great news report related to the Bulgarian Daily's status in the industry, a bad one will destroy the reputation.

Kaki said in a daze and proposed: "How about we just put them together and forget about it!"

"You mean the extra version? It's not impossible though the risk is greatly increased. If it works out, the benefits will be great! If there is no better way, so be it!" Pavel said to himself.

"Ah!" Kaki exclaims.

The result was so unexpected that he had meant to suggest condensing the content and deleting some of the needless comments in it, and it would be enough to put it together.

Kaki said at once, "Yes!" Since the editor-in-chief had already decided, he didn't have any need to explain. Anyway, this kind of big event was not something for a small person like him to consider.

As for what kind of impact the added version will have, Kaki does not know. Anyway, he hasn't met this situation yet.

At the end of the 19th century, when the public's purchasing power was now purely from economic factors, Pavel decided that it was certainly risky to increase the printing costs. Increasing the sales price would be necessary, which might affect the final sales, and the risk of losing money increased greatly.

If one considers the impact, then the added version is undoubtedly a conservative one, which is kind of all-around, not showing the core and not leaving out the key points, and will not affect the industry's status.

It was Pavel who had a headache at Sofia and his peers who had a bad time.

No matter which side is the focus, people can not give up such a piece of major news. One can think of tomorrow's newspaper sales to break another record.

At midnight, a printing house began to get busy. By now, all the major newspapers had made their choices and were ready to do their best in tomorrow's battle for public opinion.

...

Karl looked at the newspaper in his hand and said in disbelief, "God, how is this possible?"

Although he had been prepared to lose the election, Karl still found it hard to accept when he really saw the result.

In the previous estimate, it's nothing more than that no party can get a dominant seat in this election, which adds up to at least 30-40 percent of the seats! They can still pull in some non-partisans and then unite with other parties to form a cabinet.

And now? All the political parties have fallen together, and they have fallen sharply. Even the Liberal Party, which won the most seats, has only two members of parliament.

Even if they are more shameless, the new Liberals do not dare to claim to be the winner now. Does Karsten dare to propose a cabinet to Ferdinand in the name of the majority party now? Not to mention whether he can pass it, the public will still be laughing hard if this is proposed.

In the early morning, on the street of Sofia, the newsboy's voices rang out: "Newspaper, newspaper, everyone, come and see! The latest news, the latest news, the results of yesterday's parliamentary elections have been released. The ending is beyond your imagination! Everyone come to..."

When Lora just went out, she was caught by the "new news" from the newsboy. She went up to him and said, "One of the Bulgarian Daily, one of the Sofia Morning, and one of the Global Express!"

The newsboy quickly and skillfully took out the newspaper which Lora ordered from the bag. He handed it over professionally and said, "Yes, the newspaper you want, madam, please take it, the total is 1 Lev!"

Lora took the newspaper, which she attracted to it at once. She didn't care about the price, paid for it readily and continued to reread it.

When she saw the section on "women's right to vote", she frowned. Although the government had announced it long ago, she was still unhappy that the event had really happened.

After seeing the joke of "no one was elected in Gabler's constituency", Lora couldn't help but giggle about the unlucky ones who got knocked out.

After seeing the "final election results", Lora said "good" three times over. Like many Bulgarians, all they want now is to maintain the status quo. They are scared by the Stambolov government and fear another failed cabinet.

Now, since the independents won the final election, it also means that there will be no major changes in the government, and the interim cabinet will remain in place.

This election in Bulgaria in 1892 left a heavy legacy in history. It marked the decline of Bulgarian political parties, and it lasted until a century later, without being able to change the situation. In later times, historians also saw it as "a sign of the popular enlightenment in Bulgaria".
